The world renowned BOiBOX is back and for a very special Drag King Cabaret show, presenting the UKs finest Drag King superstars in London's glittering West End at the sumptuous Phoenix Arts Club!
After 9 years of sell out, sensational shows in the East End and across the UK, BOiBOX has become the UK's most recognised Drag King Show, known as ‘London’s vital Drag King Show-case… the cornerstone of the UK Drag King Scene' (TimeOut). Come and join the next wave and King size your Cabaret experience!
Hosted by the iconic Drag Duo, Adam All & Apple Derrieres
Adam has been performing internationally for 14 years and has been instrumental in the growth in the Drag King Scene in the UK. Adam All was referred to as the 'Godfather' of the modern Drag King scene in the UK and one of the 'Game-changers' of the UK Drag Scene in TimeOut Magazine . He is the first winner of Pride in London's 'Prides Got Talent Cabaret' and the first ever winner of 'Best Drag King' at the 2019 QX Cabaret Awards. Apple Derrieres joined Adam All on stage in 2013 and together they have since taken the cabaret world by storm, performing internationally together with their unique brand of live blended vocals, coordinated couture and cartoon flavoured Drag. Apple Derrieres is also known for her work as ‘super swing’ in the acclaimed West End Show ‘Death Drop’ and as host of the iconic Lesbian Karaoke night at She Soho.
Adam & Apple are the co-curators and co-producers of BOiBOX, they are huge advocates of the LGBTQI+ scene, their aim being to bring visibility to AFAB love, people and performers, particularly within the Cabaret scene. They have a simple mantra: “We can do it, together. Collaborating, working together and supporting each other has been our foundation. Together we are stronger. Together we can make the world a better place.” Oh and they're married in real life.
Super Starring;-
Jamie Fuxx - Blasting onto the scene like a rocket, this (no longer) New Kid n the Block has had a very busy year, Man Up finalist, Prides Got Talent finalist, from The Mighty Hooplah to Pride in London and back round the scenic route he's been everywhere and now he makes his debut at BOiBOX. This heart throb will sing and dance his way directly into your one-to-watch list!
Häns Off - German party boy Häns Off was born in the cloakroom queue of superklub Berghain, Berlin. The strictly V.I.P. really struggled having to queue for supermarkets like other humans during the pandemic but went on to win Man Up 2022 and has been snatching fäns ever since. Häns is the creation of multidiscinplary and acclaimed performer, actor, writer, comedian and curator of Haus of Dons at the Box, Daisy Dorris May.
Richard Melanin III - Give this clown a crown! Master of the art of visual comedy this King of clowning brings it every time, yet somehow the journey is always astonishingly unexpected. We are super excited to welcome back this seasoned favourite and highly skilled entertainer to the BOiBOX stage.
Bi-Curious George - Reigning Champion of Not Another Drag Competition, this curiously dashing Drag King beat a couple dozen drag artist of all genres to win the coveted title. We first encountered him at our open mic night Open Box and are very proud to welcome him back as a fully fledged legend.
